JUNE 2009 -- Toyota is
recalling 1,348 Model Year
2009 and 2010 passenger cars
built from June 2, 2008 to
May 4, 2009. These vehicles
were not equipped with load
carrying capacity
modification labels which
fails to conform with the
requirements of Federal
Motor Vehicle Safety
Standard No. 110, "Tire
Selection and Rims."
Incorrect load carrying
capacity modification labels
could result in the vehicle
being overloaded, increasing
the risk of a crash. Toyota
will notify owners and
provide them with a new,
accurate label to be
installed over the
inaccurate label free of
charge. The safety recall is
expected to begin during
July 2009.
